    I think Pink Floyd's COMFORTABLY NUMB fits the WTS.

    It is more about sticking a needle in someone's arm to make him feel better, but it could fit the Tower.
    They take people who are sick (of something in the world, or perhaps a bit ill in the head) and offer to
    make them feel better. They still get a bit sick from the WT cure for what ails them, and they wind up
    worse than they started eventually, trying to hold it all together- settling for comfortably numb.

    But I'm with dinah: Hotel California's infamous line "you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave" describes the WT to a T.

    EASY - The Commodores. A) I was leaving my wife. B) I was leaving the Borg.

    Know it sounds funny but I just cant stand the pain.
    Girl, I'm leaving you tomorrow.
    Seems to me, girl, you know I've done all I can...
    You see, I begged, stole, and I borrowed.
    Ooh, thats why I'm easy.....I'm easy like sunday morning.
    That's why I'm easy......I'm easy like sunday morning.

    Why in the world would anybody put chains on me?
    I've paid my dues to make it.
    Everbody wants me to be what they want me to be...
    I'm not happy when I try to fake it!

    'Walking Contradiction' by Green Day

    Do as I say not as I do because
    The sh*t's so deep you can't run away
    I beg to differ on the contrary
    I agree with every word that you say
    Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
    My wallet's fat and so is my head
    Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
    I'm a smart ass but I'm playing dumb

    Standards set and broken all the time
    Control the chaos behind a gun
    Call it as I see it even if
    I was born deaf, blind and dumb
    Losers winning big on the lottery
    Rehab rejects still sniffing glue
    Constant refutation with myself
    I'm a victim of a catch 22

    I have no belief
    But I believe
    I'm a walking contradiction
    And I ain't got no right

    Do as I say not as I do because
    The sh*t's so deep you can't run away
    I beg to differ on the contrary
    I agree with every word that you say
    Talk is cheap and lies are expensive
    My wallet's fat and so is my head
    Hit and run and then I'll hit you again
    I'm a smart ass but I'm playing dumb

    I have no belief
    But I believe
    I'm a walking contradiction
    And I ain't got no right

    I have no belief
    But I believe
    I'm a walking contradiction
    And I ain't got no right

    I Said I'm Angry Just Looking At You.

    I'm Sick And Tired Of Sitting Back Listening To All Of Your Clap-Trap
    If You Could Get Me To Take The Rap I Guarantee
    You'd Leave Me With A Backslap.
    Push Me To The Left, Push Me To The Right Try To Take Me Out Of The Way
    Ven If You Kick Me Off The Edge Of The World,
    You're Still Going To Hear Me Say...

    When The Hell Gives You The Right To Tell Me What To Do With My Life?
